I just finished the Glazed Carrots. They baked in the allotted time, BUT I did halve the recipe for just the two of us.

Delish! Thanks! They are going back into the oven to warm through when the Pork is almost done. Side rice dish is in the micro.

Re: house plant check-ups
I found 2 fat green worms in my geraniums.
🐛🐛
I knew something was munching holes in the leaves.
These little guys were the exact color of the geraniums,
hard to find them.

Thank you for supporting me in my Retirement, LOL! Dick Zondag finally retired, and two of his sons are running the company, now.

Eldest Son is just a super nice young man - very conscientious and knows the importance of this company, cares about the employees and appreciates the HISTORY.

Middle Son and his wife run the website from their home in SC and the youngest brother and a sister aren’t involved in the company as far as I know.

I met the sister, once. She is a total plant freak, but has no desire to be ‘in the biz.’

If you ever see the Jung’s Family/Employee Cookbook at the store, pick up a copy. It’s really good! Lots of family history included, too. I own one and have gifted it many times. I think they still sell it on their website.

And that’s all the gossip I know. For now. ;)
